A Lemon is a sour yellow citrus fruit used mostly as a flavouring. It can be eaten whole, but its real strength is in cooking. As a spice, it adds flavour and hunger to many dishes without using an ingredient slot.

Lemons go into soups, cakes, pancakes, muffins, sweet pies, fruit salads and hot drinks. They keep for about a week before turning. Lemons come from grocery stands and from the fridges of seafood restaurants and ice cream shops. The Farmer is the best occupation for fruits and vegetables. It starts with the most Agriculture skill.

Eating

A whole Lemon lowers hunger by 10 and thirst by 5. It holds only 17 calories, with a few grams of carbohydrates. That makes it a light snack that does little for body weight.

A fresh lemon is a fair snack. As it ages, its effects turn more negative, so an old lemon is a poor one. A fresh one is a fair thirst quencher in a pinch.

A Lime has the same food values as a lemon. The lemon is the better pick for a fruit salad or pancakes, where it adds 5 hunger against the lime's 2.

The table shows the game figures for one serving. Negative hunger and thirst fill the character up, and negative unhappiness and boredom cheer them up.

Cooking

Lemon counts as a spice, so it does not count toward a dish's ingredient limit. It adds 10 hunger to a Soup. It adds 5 each to a Cake, Fruit Salad, Pancakes, Muffin, sweet Pie and Stir Fry. It adds 2 each to a Hot Drink, Taco and Burrito.

Its herbal tea tag marks it as a flavouring for hot drinks. Soup gets the most from a lemon, at 10 hunger. The Cooking skill makes each ingredient go further.

These dishes take the Lemon as an ingredient, with the hunger it restores in each.

Storage

A fresh Lemon stays fresh for 7 days and is rotten by day 9. A fridge slows both counts. Lemons are best used in a dish within the first week.

Locations

Seafood kitchen fridges are the best place to look, holding lemons almost two times in three. Grocery stands at Gigamart and grocery stores carry them more than half the time. Ice cream shop fridges are just as good. Mexican kitchen fridges hold them about one time in five. Crepe, bakery, donut shop, Italian and cafeteria kitchens turn them up now and then. House and restaurant fridges hold them rarely.
